[W126 Coupe] shipping accounts/connections

[Bruce Mendel]

It does seem to be much cheaper to ship UK to here than vice versa.

      Jono,

      That's what I'm finding.  What confuses me is when I see quotes from UK folks to ship the same type items here for a LOT less, using UPS, Fedex, DHL, etc.  Wonder how that's possible?

        You are not going to want to use UPS or Fedex..that much I can tell you..even w/ preferred rates it's still going to be brutally expensive. 


        Depending on the size of the item USPS is likely your best bet.

          Anybody have any accounts with shippers (UPS, DHL, Fedex, etc) that get discounts or great deals on shipping items?  Or connections with someone who does?

          I am trying to get some items returned to the UK and am finding the cost quite high and trying to find reasonable alternatives.

          Or have experience with how to initiate a "callback" for something someone sent and they want returned but refuse to pay for?!

          Please email me offlist.  Thanks!
